Regress and Eat

091 Screening Quest (5)

The High Priest pondered for a moment with a serious look and then made a decision.

I have no choice but to do as he wishes, for now! ’

The humiliation and anger rose in the Department of Zhang Jiang Mai.

“You're already retreating from the expedition? ”

“Yes, I will retreat to the dungeon and join the reinforcements there. ”

“Tell everyone to come back to the motherland. ”

“· · · · · · · Yes? ”

The priest who responded obediently showed a different face for the first time.

The expedition is currently retreating, despite a very small proportion of the entire force of Bo 'Tark.

It is natural to retreat to the dungeon and prepare for a second invasion if the Awakened Race counterattack is severe.

But now the High Priest has given orders to shine a light on us as if we were to abandon the invasion again.

“ · · · · · ·. ”

A heavy silence flows between the two botars.

The high priest said in a sunny voice.

“Why? Do you want to protest? ”

The priest who delivered the news was a little nervous.

I feel the hairs on my back and blame myself for my mistakes.

“No! High Priest, forgive my mistake. I will relay a mandatory evacuation of all troops immediately. ”

The commoner barely restrains his body from fluttering.

Although he was on the High Priestess's side, Bo 'Tark was full of garages to replace him. If you see any signs of navigation, your life will be lost right here. Like those women with broken heads on their beds.

The High Priest was extremely sensitive to the authority and power he wielded. Eight bishops stood up to him publicly and survived because they had that much power, but they were different from the rest. If you resist planting, you will be returned to the Mother Earth on that day.

“Oh, and... ”

The High Priest asks.

“Bishop Six, what have you been up to in the last month? ”

The anecdotes recite the information in their heads.

Aside from the official schedule, gather and report any information you come across as a confidential route.

Most of the information was already known to the High Priestess, but he listened more carefully than ever.

‘The dungeon border was broken only a month ago. That's all the bishop could afford to mate with the xenophiles. An anomaly should have appeared in between. ’

The High Priest who heard the report asks again.

“How many goons are you putting on his side now? ”

“There are 15 of them. ”

“Double it from today onwards. ”

I wanted to point out the plagiarism. If an extra spy like that suddenly sticks together, there's a high chance the opposing team will notice.

However, I dared not drop my mouth in front of the high priest who was nervous.

In the end, the plainclothes followed the precedent of serving oppressive and fearsome rulers.

He swallowed sincere advice down his throat and obeyed a clear command that would lead to bad consequences.

“Yes, I'll do it. ”

As he retreats, the High Priestess opens a window to circulate the bloody air.

Standing by the window, you can see the sun stretching out his forehead over the ridge.

The calm dawn rays pierced my eyes.

‘Just as the heterosexual got what he wanted, the conspirator must have got something. I have no choice but to stay behind. ’

I didn't intend to be a faithful servant following orders.

The ultimate goal of the intersect insiders will be their own wavefront.

If we kept playing with them, we would have only slowed down the planned destruction a little.

‘The most prominent candidate for the labor force is the sixth bishop. I'll rip him off and rip out his connections. And · · · blame him for it all! ’

The axis that held the tight period of power struggle fell today.

The opposing Pokémon stabs their way in like this, but they don't intend to stick out their necks and die quietly.

The High Priestess sensed a blood gust in the cult that had maintained a stubborn opposition for some time.

“But you know what? ”

Nate suddenly opened his mouth as he watched the movements of his family members.

There are a series of undead on all sides cutting the core from the heart of the oak lying on the floor with their skilled manual labour.

Most of them were so badly damaged that they couldn't be fashioned.

Quack! Quack!

Like fishermen digging for shellfish, the undead harvest the core with quick and precise movements without wasting a single inch. You bend at your waist once, and there is a glittering core in your hand.

Hibiki turns her head as she looks at it.

“What?"

It was a dungeon where the gray earth was spread out.

Gates connected to this space are located in the deep mountains, and are yet to be known to anyone but them. A place neither the government nor the Gate Keepers' hunters · · · nor any other guild members of the Celestial Dragon know about.

On the other hand, this is the place where Seo Jin-wook had been planting trees brought from other dungeons in the past.

“What does Jin-wook want with this tree? ”

Seo Jin-wook left for another job, but he said he didn't know how long it would take and asked the two of them to do it.

It was a simple task to listen to the growing conditions of the plants and to clear out all the monsters around you.

But the reality was not so simple.

Nate speaks.

“And what is this tree that makes monsters so twisted around? I'm studying now. You cleared all the monsters off guard the last time? And then there were so many more of them. This isn't normal, is it? Right?"

There were hundreds of bodies all around.

Normally, killing all the monsters inside the perimeter will take time for those outside to come back in and take their place. This part is a scourge for the guild for obtaining mining rights and is the main motivation for expanding the boundaries and expanding the dungeon.

But this dungeon was a little strange. With all dungeons like this, the amount of Mana Core mining around the world will increase dramatically.

Nate thought the reason was in the seedlings.

“Why does this tree attract monsters? Jin-wook said it would get worse if the fruit opened · ·. ”

He said that if he saw flowers and fruits that would open, he might have to stay here.

Since then, a lot more monsters will come.

Hibiki, who listened to it, said in an indifferent tone.

“The only reason you haven't explained it is because we don't need to know yet. ”

“But you're curious. ”

“He'll let you know when it's time. We follow our orders. This will also be necessary for the future. ”

It was a strong belief in Seo Jin-wook.

Nate looks at it with admiration.

“You have a lot of trust. ”

He asks again as if he is surprised.

“You don't believe me? ”

“No, of course I do. I was just wondering. How does Jin-wook know all this? ”

Much earlier than Hibbie Nate, who asked the same question, I've been in my head for a long time.

But I decided not to put it in my mouth now.

Seo Jin-wook was the one who completely changed Hibiki's life with a bomb that didn't know when it would explode.

Moreover, he had already been an acclaimed and talented journalist around the world, but Hibiki thought that his assessment of Seo Jin-wook had been underestimated.

Considering what I had seen around me, I had no choice but to make that decision.

“How? I don't know. But I can assure you, he's a lot more than most people think. You saw it together, right? ”

“That's what I think. ”

Hibiki nods.

“I think all this work we're doing right now is for the world and for humanity. So there's no question. ”

“Fantastic.”

Nate scratches his head.

“Where did Jin-wook go, by the way? What's going on? ”

Hibiki says he guesses.

“Think about it. You took us both with you when you stopped the Class A dungeon brake, right? But he didn't take her this time. Is it really that dangerous? ”

“Hmm.”

Nate had no idea what was so dangerous.

“Are there a lot of enemies? Like an army?"

“I don't know, but I don't think it's strange that his ability, even though he's moving a country at the end of the spectrum, ”

“Wow, Hibiki. Now you're joking. ”

“Hmph.”

Nate smiles brightly, pointing to her changes, and Hibiki snorts and looks away.

After consuming the core needed to return to Earth, I entered the [Gate of Hope] and came to a room filled with light that I had just seen.

- Please specify transfer location within dimension.

I ignore the telepathy spilled by the artifact for a moment and look at the statue.

The key to getting this done easily.

The results were the same after several observations with [successor's eyes].

‘Of course, there's not a word of Mana. If you contact a corpse, it won't have any sacred power. It's just a statue. ’

A treasure trove the entire Botanical family loves.

Although it is a symbol of the Church's ambassador, if you lose it, you will suffer a miserable fall.

There was nothing special about this power.

I've already come to a conclusion.

‘There is a good chance that the Goddess of Bo 'Tark does not exist. Almost 99.9% sure. ’

Their dimension is still in the tutorial phase, just like Earth.

Knowledge from previous lives suggests that a great concept beyond mortals, worth calling God, exists.

‘They are also not omnipotent. ’

Systems and omnipotent yards, and God-affiliated beings, were said to coexist with or follow the system in a broad range.

Of course, the Earth has always been a tutorial phase in its past life, although we have never come into direct contact with them or experienced influence.

‘A cult that worships a god that does not exist can rule the entire tribe with its ideology. It's strange.'

I shoved the statue into the snake's mouth, expressing my emotions.

- Please specify transfer location within dimension.

When the artifact stimulates me like it urges me again.

Whoops!

The light flashes before my eyes.

This time, the message he dug into his brain was not an artifact spill.

System messages that periodically contact me.

In other words, it was transmitted by the control personality who controlled the system.

- Quest complete!

- Quest Name: Dimensional Guard (2) – ‘Botark’

- Description: Bothac is the name of the tribe that is giving up and retreating after a month of local occupation. They're retreating, but they don't know when to resume the invasion. Identify ways to combat subsequent dimensional invasions, move them into action, and take proactive defensive action.

- Reward: 2 million Achievement Points awarded to the user!

It was clear that the High Priestess had taken some action.

You gave the order to retreat to the dimension! ’

I think the threats I pushed worked, so I gave the order.

That's exactly what it looked like over time.

That is why the system decided. We've completely suppressed the possibility of a re-invasion at this point!

And the reward is · · · ·.

Two million? ’

I was amazed.

It's a pretty big distribution.

The reward started at 1 million points when I saw it on the quest list.

‘Just a double bonus. ’

He thinks my actions were as effective and influential as his.

‘Wait, this is a point. ’

It can be exchanged for items that affect the entire tutorial.

It is also possible to make other requests to the system instead of items.

Like I dealt with the Spirit of War before.

‘I received more points than I expected. ’

1.4 million points for Adam to cross over to Earth.

The faction that completed the tutorial was also said to be an enormous number of points.

But the points I've collected now, over the course of two quests, add up to 26.8 million.

I'm gonna have to change my plans. That's more than I ever wanted. ’

The moment I want to see a list of things I can do by spending these achievement points.

Separate from the system message, the telepathic sound of [Door of Hope] echoes again.

- Please specify transfer location within dimension.

-Send randomly if there is no desired location.

Oh, come on. You're pushing it pretty hard.

I saw it unfold before my eyes, postponing what I was about to do for a moment.

The entire universe of the original world was unfolded where I lived, namely the planet Earth.

A vast expanse of space that's too small to see.

I groan into my heart.

‘This is worse than the sense, what, web browser auto-completion. ’

Since we have crossed over from Earth, is it impossible to infer that we will return to that planet when we return?

I told the artifact.

“You don't have to show me a wide map. We're going back to Earth. ”

To put it this way, the door of hope narrows the screen to a single planet.

Everything I need to teach Nate is not so different from the level of artificial intelligence I've planted with Nate.

-Tell us where you're sending it.

“Show me where I came from. ”

I was going to see how Adam was doing first.

The screen changes quickly.

“Oh! It's over already? ”

With a clear view of all the buildings inside the barricade, I was able to see that the gym and exhibition hall where the hostages were held was almost empty.

Meanwhile, Adam seems busy dissecting the giant worm while the hostage is on the run. Removes large organs and muscles and inserts them into subspace artifacts.

Ugh!

When I gazed at the earthworm corpse, [door of hope] projected and showed it to the inside of its giant skin.

Do you mean to send the worm into your body if you want to?

‘Oh, that's so senseless. I need to see this. ’

Back then.

A lightning bolt of bitterness struck my back.

‘Oh, wait a minute. Now!’

I've been thinking about the inter-dimensional transmitter's ability to [door of hope].

However, after consuming the Mana Core for the opponent's dimension,

I learned that there is another function.

‘You can look at the destination dimension in detail. I can observe wherever I want. Perfect fluoroscopy! Should I say this is artificially artificialized satellites? No, even this metaphor is a tremendous feature! ’

This could be more useful than I thought.

A smile was raised.

And I naturally came up with the list in my head.

At this point, we have a list of aliens infiltrating Earth who only know what they look like and where they are!
